Changing the transmission fluid in your Kia Rio is a relatively simple task that every car owner should know how to do. You will need a socket set, a funnel, and a drain pan.

First, locate the drain plug on your transmission and place the drain pan underneath. Once the old fluid has completely drained, replace the drain plug and move on to the refill step. Use only Kia approved transmission fluid and make sure to check the owner's manual for the specific type.

Using the funnel, pour the new fluid into the transmission through the dipstick tube. It is important to slowly pour the fluid to avoid air bubbles. Check the fluid level as you go and stop pouring when it reaches the full mark. Congratulations, you have successfully changed the transmission fluid in your Kia Rio!
